Hi,

Doing a fresh install on a new pi5 and received the compile error in src/pdp1_periph

main.c:24:10: fatal error: <SDL_ttf.h> No such file or directory

pdp1control start also errors with:

nohup; failed to run command 'bin/pdp1_periphES': No such file or directory

I assume they are related.

On a different note I'd also like to say thanks very much for all the work everyone has done to create this. It's much appreciated.

Regards
Carlo

Oh yes i forgot to mention that SDL2_ttf is now needed to compile this, for the typewriter. just install the package and it should work. but i suppose this should go into the install script :)

I installed SDL2 via  apt-get install libsdl2-2.0-0 and also  apt-get install libsdl2-dev but the .h is still missing? Do I need to install something else?
Thanks, Bill

libsdl2-ttf-dev perhaps?
